Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0616384A1] A wrist-mounted-type portable device comprises a main body (1a) having a front surface facing opposite to a user's wrist, a rear surface facing the user's wrist when mounted around the user's wrist, a circuit board (5) formed thereon and an antenna (13; 39) fixed in the main body and the wrist bands. The antenna may be arranged in the main body so that it is positioned at the same side of the front surface with respect to the circuit board. Since the circuit board is not disposed on the front surface of the antenna radiation waves generated by the antenna is not disturbed. Therefore, the wrist-mounted-type antenna device according to the present invention has high directivity and sensitivity. <IMAGE>
